This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
: the contact stated, the engine overheated due to cracks in the head gasket, causing the transmission to slip. There was an accident on 6/20/06 due to the transmission slippage. It was raining and the rate of speed was 30mph. No injuries incurred but minor damage to the other vehicle was reported in the police report.
Vehicle pops out of overdrive and O/D light flashes on. The transmission shop has replaced the cylnoid that controls this 4 times. Works for awhile then starts again. Cannot find any other problems. Transmission rebuild is now the only remedy.
Remote door does not work all of the time. Dealer replaced latch but did not correct the problem. Customer placed a small round magnet on the quarter panel on each side where the lid contacts the quarter panel temporarily correcting the problem. Customer would like the dealer to properly correct the problem. Car idles rough when accessorories are turned on. Transmission shifts harshly under various conditions. Transmission does not immediatelt engage in gear when going from park to drive. This seems to happen when car sits for an extended period of time but does not always occur. Customer has noticed at times an unusal large loss of transmission fluid but does not see a leak or smell. Right front door speaker cuts in and out.
I lost count after 22 times for that car being in the shop. Now... I can barely get it out of park.. they ordered the part for it, but failed to call me when it came in, therefore it was sent back. Then after I complained again to the service manager. I was told that the part was now on back-order, but they found one in Oklahoma that was going to be sent to them for me in a week. After 3 weeks I went up there again and I was told that there is no part coming in from Oklahoma, that one's on back-order too ! I am getting the run around for a car that doesn't even get me around !!!!!! this is ridiculous ! please someone help me ! I don't know what to do now and I'm always late for school and appointments because I can't get my car out of park !!!! my thumb is so sore and swollen and calloused from trying to get it out of park !
